Tenrony Empowers FAW Jiefang Wuxi R&D Base National Brands Collaborate to Set a Benchmark

Amid the accelerating trend of the national auto industry towards high-end and intelligent development, the construction of core R&D bases is regarded as the “power engine” for industrial upgrading. When the leading player in China’s commercial vehicle sector, FAW Jiefang, set up its strategic R&D hub in the heart of the Yangtze River Delta, a rigorous selection process for the power supply system was initiated. Zhejiang Tenrony Electric, with its technological accumulation and quality commitment in the fields of substations and complete sets of high-voltage switchgear, successfully because the core supplier of power equipment for FAW Jiefang’s R&D capacity enhancement project in Wuxi. The collaboration between these two national Brands not only highlights the strategic vision of leading enterprises but also testifies to the powerful synergy between high-quality supply chains and strong brands.

As the birthplace of the first car in New China, FAW Jiefang is a “barometer” of the commercial vehicle industry. In 2025,it ranked first in the  industry with a brand value of 145.029 billion yuan. From January to May. It sold 111,000 medium and heavy-duty trucks, accounting for 23.5% of the market share, topping the list. Its new energy vehicle sales increased by 110.0% year-on-year. The R&D project in Wuxi. With a total investment of 423 million yuan, is a key node in its” four countries and nine regions” layout. It is tasked with breaking through in power-train technology and creating a benchmark for green and intelligent R&D. it has extremely high requirements for supporting equipment.

Tenrony has stood out with its technological accumulation and customization capabilities. It has been deeply engaged in the power equipment field, with benchmark projects covering over 30 provinces and cities. It R&D focuses on “miniaturization, energy conservation, and intelligence”. Its independently developed “ small steel cannon” substation occupies only 35% of the area of traditional ones and has higher power supply efficiency, meeting the space and energy efficiency requirements of bases. For the strict power demands of the all-weather engine environmental test bench, it customizes high-voltage switchgear systems, achieving a power supply reliability of 99.99% through optimized design, thus laying a solid foundation for test guarantees.

Tenrony provides full-cycle services to ensure the smooth progress of the project. Facing the challenge of power layout for a 46,000-square-meter, 59.26-meter-high R&D building, the technical team collaborated with all parties and competed the optimization plan in two months, compressing the installation period to 45days(30% shorter than the industry average), ensuring the project’s completion by October 2025 as scheduled. After commissioning, relying on the “remote diagnosis+ expert support” system, it will monitor and respond 24/7 to ensure seamless power supply in all scenarios, providing stable energy for research and development of achievements such as the “H Smart Power Domain” of Jiefang.

This cooperation is a model of synergy among national brands. Tenrony Equipment supports the efficient operation of the core tests at the base and guarantees the research and development of the technologies such as hydrogen fuel engines. Tenrony upgrades its products and services through cooperation with leading company, which validates the symbiotic logic of “supply chain empowering brands and brands driving the supply chain”. As LiSheng, the chairman of FAW Jiefang, said the collaboration between the two sides is a vivid practice of promoting high-quality development in the manufacturing industry with professional capacities.
